Excellent choice, glad you found something to ride in before the trigger.

Whatever you choose, if you get a custom valving for free, really consider digressive valving. It has made me a believer that you can have a great offroad ride, and a great onroad ride at the same time.

Quick update on the doors and stargazer window that were all leaking. They removed the stargazer, resealed it, and claim we are good to go. They also found the doors were warped, and adjusted them. I am still waiting to pick it up as they are installing a roof rack while it is there. I will...

I got mine through a black friday sale from a well known vendor, I think they were offering 20% off on Icons. You do not have to purchase them directly from Icon. A point that needs made here is stiffness vs harshness. Ride in a S class or 7 series, and the ride is very firm (little body roll...

So, for various reasons, I was considering the CTEK Dual 250S to charge my trailer. Could I place the CTEK Dual 250S on the trailer, wire it to my 7 pin and trailer solar, and allow it to take care of the battery on the trailer that way? Any ideas of how it would interact with a ACR in my...

I have icons on my FJ, as does my friend on his tundra. Prior to that he had a OME setup on his tacoma, and I had the SS 1.2 lift on my 4Runner. We both feel as though the ride of the icons are worlds ahead of both of those lifts, AND the stock ride quality. Mind you, we both have CDC valves on...

I have searched and searched, and have not come up with a solution to my question. I am going to install a dual battery system in my FJ (assembling parts now), and I have recently acquired a teardrop that charges its battery off the 7 pin connector. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to...

Your links dont work :(

Having transitioned from a 3rd gen to an fj, the interior space is not hugely different as there is so much more headroom. Pack up, not out. My wife and I can pack everything needed for weeks at a time with plenty of room left. And the power is soooo much better. And the aftermarket is bigger...

I traded my 3rd gen for an fj. It is a move that I would do again.

People love a truck that is clean when they are buying, it gives them the feeling that the previous owner took care of it. I would call around to different detailing shops, explain what you want, and ask for some general prices. For a midsized SUV, my area would charge 350-450 depending on the...

An update on our little guy. We have had it out twice so far, and the updates are as such: - Wife wanted a memory foam topper, an amazon order later we had one for under a hundred bucks, and so far based on our first trip with it on, it makes a big difference on the comfort level. Not that it...

Yep, so far I am loving them on my FJ Cruiser... They do run smaller than advertised, but I think the size ended up being almost perfect for me!

A quick snapshot of the galley from this weekend while we were out. We spent 2 nights in the teardrop, and are overall very pleased. I do want to build a slide out drawer for my camp partner stove, and change around the storage a bit, but overall, very nice. The wife loved the sink! I know many...

The bed is a standard size queen, so the wife determined that one of our old sets of sheets would be good to leave the house and move to the trailer. We are debating if we want a memory foam topper or not, I guess the choice will be made after spending the first full night in it. The headboard...

Some interior pictures, all pretty standard stuff at this point. In other news, we have decided to give it a dry run at a local camp ground. As neither my wife nor I have spent a night in a teardrop, we decided a few quick local trips would help us get a feeling for what we need and what we...

Thanks Scott, your little guy really put us over the edge on which direction to go! In fact, when ordering, we mentioned your setup, and it really helped them understand what we were looking for!

All, As you may have seen in my other thread (http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/137560-What-am-I-forgetting-Little-Guy-Build), the wife and I ordered a little guy teardrop, and have finally received it. I wanted to start a new thread for the trailer now that it is in our possession...

We discussed with the factory on this... Apparently their source of fenders does not have much that will fit a tire that size. That being said, the fenders are a perfect fit. I think I am going to bed line them to make the surface a bit more durable, and better for a cup of coffee, should not...

So... it showed up finally, and all is correct, kinda... LOL... They forgot the max coupler at the factory, so I had to take it home on a tongue and ball. The max coupler should be here today or tomorrow, so no big deal as the dealer is just 10 minutes from my work. Otherwise, it is perfect. The...
